In September of 2015, I made the decision to quit my job and book a one-way flight to Cape Town, South Africa, without any real plans. Well, realistically, I had decided in my head years before that I wanted to have a backpacking adventure, but lots of people say things like that to themselves […]
UGH. Let’s talk about how when I got my passport back yesterday there was NOT a visa for Egypt in there. Instead there was a note with a different application form. The note simply said: “Plz Apply NY Office.” GOSH DARNIT WHAT!? Sooooo because I’m a crazy nervous person, I actually sent out my passport […]
Alright… I broke down and checked the tracking numbers for my Egyptian visa… and it looks like my passport arrived at the Embassy on Monday and was put in the mail BACK TO ME ALREADY!!! As of THIS MORNING! I’m really hoping this was just an amazingly fast processing and not that something’s wrong… but […]
OMG A BLOG POST! Starting this isn’t the easiest thing in the world… but I suppose that could be said for this entire venture that I’m about to disclose to you, so it’s rather appropriate in a meta sort of way… Since 2011, or maybe even before that, (I can say 2011 definitively because I […]
I’ll preface this with the fact that I am in NO WAY an extreme couponer. I just like getting money back when I do things, and since my Sorority Sister had introduced me to Ebates, I’ve poked around for a few other ways to get cash back for things I already do. Once of the […]
I recently was given the opportunity to be interviewed by John Sonmez on his Get Up and Code Podcast, because of my work at Infragistics and my lifting and roller derby involvement. It was my first interview, and luckily it was a joint interview with my colleague, Chris. Truth be told I was incredibly nervous, […]
Transferring to a WFTDA team, especially one in Division 2, was one of the hardest decisions I’ve had to make in my derby career. This league is full of so many dedicated, hard working and talented skaters, any number of us could fill a roster of 14 on any given day. That’s why when the […]
One of the things I love about working at Infragistics is the company culture… and one of the things I love about working in Marketing is the opportunity to be creative! The past few years at the company, instead of decorating the office in one uniform way for the holiday season, it’s become this amazing […]
I don’t know that I’ve ever blogged about my LARPing experience, but even if I have, Nekocon LARP 2014 is a spectacular reason to rehash. Why? Well, if for no other reason than one of my best humans, my human that at the ripe age of 12, we attended our first Con and LARP together. […]
Yes, yes, I’m SO aware that it’s October 20th. HOWEVER, I did manage to take these stats down on the 10th, so I don’t feel that horribly bad. I do have a LOT of things to talk about though, so I need to get back on the wagon here. This week is my last in […]
